Windows 10 S is a gamble on the future of desktop apps

Pick a carrier, any carrier: HTC Touch sees wide German release

It looks like subscribers on pretty much any major carrier in Germany will get a shot at the touchy, feely HTC Touch in the next few weeks (though not in wasabi green, we'd wager). The company's European outpost has announced that Vodafone, O2, and T-Mobile will all be adding the Touch to their lineup between this and next month, with O2 likely the first with the "Xda nova" (final design above right). Vodafone meanwhile will simply slap its branding on HTC's reference design (above left), while T-Mobile's bodywork has yet to be announced. Look for it to hit for about €450 ($600) unsubsidized or €49 ($65) on contract. Big diff there, eh?
